But I am disappointed by no C-3PO to go with R2-D2. And Slave Leia instead of a better version.

Boba and the Stormtrooper are obvious choices - Boba's already coming at SDCC, and the Stormtrooper can share some parts with the Sandtrooper. I'm surprised that there's still no Vader. I'll reserve judgment on any of these until pictures surface.

I have a feeling that for large characters like Vader and Chewbacca they'll do separate release. Like back in the days of the 12" Figures... how they had that 14" Deluxe Darth Vader w/ Removable Helmet as a standalone product. I bet we see it this year even.... as a tie-in to the 30th Anniversary of RotJ.

I'm pretty excited about Greedo, Han Solo and especially the Stormtrooper. In fact, I might hold off on buying the Sandtrooper until I see how the Stormtroopers turn out.

I'm really hope they nail the Harrison Ford likeness on the Han Solo figure. I'm pretty forgiving of that in the 3.75" line, but for a $20 6" figure, the likeness better be amazing for me to spend the money. Same with Greedo.

Slave Leia seems like an obvious choice. That's arguably the second most iconic Leia outfit. Sure, the ANH version would be nice, but honestly, her original outfit is so plain looking I'm not even sure if I would buy it in this scale. I'm pretty sure that I'll pick up a Slave Leia, though.

Anakin and Obi-Wan are definite passes for me. Which is fine, I'm actually glad they decided to go with two Prequel figures that I have zero interest in. If they had started with Clonetroopers right off the bat, then I might have had some trouble saying no.

Bespin Luke could be amazing and I'm sure Boba Fett will look exactly like his SDCC counterpart.

I have a feeling that the Boba Fett will actually be retooled and repainted as RotJ Fett.

I wasn't intending to collect this line, but I'm definitely down for a Greedo. And I might get sucked into buying Han to go with him, if it's a good sculpt.... and then I might get Bespin Luke if a Yoda is announced to follow soon... and so it starts........

I feel the exact same way; I had no interest in this line at all ... until I realized there's no way I'd be able to pass up Vader when they finally got around to making him ... and then I'd want troopers to surround him ... and then Boba Fett ... but then I'd need the rest of the ESB hunters ... then why not Greedo too ... but how can you turn down the core heroes; Luke, Han, Chewie, Leia ... and then you realize you've bought all of them. DAMN YOU HASBRO!

Luke Bespin is one off my wishlist.

He will be my first 6" purchase if he'll look good with the Darth Vader Bespin Unleashed figure from a few years back. That's "if."

My other 2 are Qui-Gon and the Snowtrooper.

I have not bought any new figures in a long time.

I am excited about this new series, they are a bit more expensive, but it is a smaller line with fewer figures, and better detail. I will likely collect all of these.

It appears that Entertainment Earth is sneak peeking the production of Greedo on their website.
